Guest posting

You need to select the niche that is relevant to your site niche and cold email every website owner asking them you need a guest post from them.

How to do guest posting effectively?

A lot of beginners just learn some search modifiers and go on sending cold emails to the webmasters.

Example: "health" + "write for us"....

But you need to vet the sites properly and apply some filters, such as, DR/DA 20+, traffic 2k+, etc to weed out dead websites.

The next step is to actually visit the site and review the recent posts, check whether the site is just a link farm or an actual blog (A link farm is basically a website set up to "sell" guest posts and niche edits. These do more harm than good).

If I was to give you the most important factors when choosing a potential guest post website, it would be:

1. The website should be legit (not a link farm, as mentioned above)
2. It should have significant traffic (2k+) and domain age (at least 2 years old)
3. DA/DR metrics do not portray an accurate picture of the website, as they can be easily manipulated. But you can check the DR/backlinks graph of the website in SEO tools to see whether it had a sudden jump in the authority score or is it a sustained increase (the latter shows genuine authority)
4. Lastly, it should be relevant to your niche. Or at least, you should be able to come up with a topic that is the perfect "bridge" between the linked URL and the linking URL.

Hope this helps
